    I remember great lectures I had from a history teacher back in my university in the 1980s. One semester. That's it. He was very old. This is every bit as good, and there's many hours of content. The Crusades are fascinating. Great job!

    Great lecture video! Can I ask where are you from? You know what really gets me is that in the UK pupils are not taught this kind of history! They will be taught about the industrial revolution which is all good but I think more people would be interested in this kind of history teaching
